★★★★★ 5.0 Ceili Stuckmann · Apr 2025

Immaculate vibes, good decor, great coffee and breakfast options. I got the honey lavender latte, and partner got a cookie flavored coffee. Got an extra bag of their coffee just to try at home. Best of all, great prices. Excited to come again and try more.

Spacious coffee shop. Great to socialize or study. Ordered a cortado, it was good but not great. Coffee/espresso had a burnt taste. Overall great ambiance and just good coffee.

Cast Iron Coffee is a must-visit in the NIU area! The pistachio coffee is absolutely to die for—hands down a must-have. The space is spacious, inviting, and perfect for studying, catching up with friends, or just relaxing with an amazing cup of coffee. Great atmosphere, great drinks, and a great local coffee shop. Highly recommend! ☕️✨

Finally tried this place out. It was pretty good, the barista was friendly and the vanilla latte had a real flavor to it. Much better than spending to long in line at two other places on campus, not that they can't get a little busy.

Wow wow wow! The coffee is amazing. I ordered the matcha latte and what great bold flavors of matcha accompanied every sip to the last one. The baristas were kind and fast. The seating was plentiful inside and outside. This is a gem of a coffee café!
